Abstract

This paper presents an algorithm to determine where the correlation of data sequence has died out. This algorithm can be used to collect essentially uncorrelated observations from a sequence of correlated observations. The final purpose is to use such observations to derive statistical inferential procedures for the parameters concerned. Examples of M/M/1 queues are presented.
